Publisher's Synopsis
A story that needs to be told -- a modern-day history of a place and a people struggling to maintain their identity in the face of rampant development and the incursion of people and cultures from around the world. You don't have to be Hawaiian to care about these issues. When rich indigenous cultures like that of the Hawaiians are lost, we all lose knowledge critical to our future on Earth. As each generation passes and is assimilated, the light of Aloha grows dimmer.
